Should I re-run Winterbreak latest version 1.4.1 if I already successfully jailbroken with 1.3.0? (Scribe 2022). (Especially as the changelog says there are fixes for 12th gen?)

Hi @HackerDude, could you please check this thread? Some winterbreakers had troubles that may be or may not be caused by run_bridge.sh script.

If there is a problem the "Troubleshooting" says to "Try copying the Update_KUALBooklet_hotfix_*_install.bin file to the root of your Kindle when connected to your PC, and then go to Settings > Update Your Kindle, then resume from step 5. I just installed the first and everything went well. I didn't install the second. Perhaps it doesn't matter if you install both. I just installed the first. Good luck. |

I also have trouble getting this to work on my
Kindle Paperwhite 11 Gen Signature Edition with the Firmware Version 5.17.1.0.3 (just like the other people in this thread) 1. Installing WinterBreak works 2. Installing the Hotfix works 3. Installing Installing KUAL/MRPI does not work. If I follow every step and finally have to write ";log mrpi" into the searchbar, the screen goes white for some time, then resumes to the homescreen but then there is no KUAL book/app available. The only thing that I can find is a file called KPPMainAppV2_37XX...malbec_bellatrix-xxxxx-crash..." It seems that this version and Kindle right now doesn't work with the suggested files? I used the latest files from the suggested downloads, so MRPI -> kual-mrinstaller-khf.tar.xz directly from the download button on the guide (2451 KB size from 01.10.2025 20:37) KOAL (Coplate) -> KUAL-18b218e-20250103.tar |

I was also having trouble jailbreaking my Kindle Paperwhite 6th gen, FW 5.12.2.2. I tried the winterbreak jailbreak and hotfix but then got a constant core dump debug popup.
I did a factory reset and tried again, but now the option for "Update Your Kindle" is greyed out when I put the hotfix in the root folder. I can install MRPI and Kual, but KoReader won't load. Thanks for the amazing work with the jailbreak! any help would be appreciated |

The WinterBreak was successful & KOReader is running on my Kindles:
Kindle Basic (11. Generation), FW 5.17.1.0.3 Kindle Paperwhite 6 (12. Generation), FW 5.17.0 Kindle Paperwhite 6 Signature Edition (12. Generation), FW 5.17.1.0.4 Kindle Scribe (1. Generation), FW 5.17.2 Thank you all so much for the work to get this possible! Grat, amazing work! Today my Kindle Colorsoft will arrive. On a YT video I have seen a Colorsoft replacement device comes with a newer firmware than the first devices, FW 5.18.0.1.0.1 on the replacement device, FW 5.18.0.1 on the first device. Works the WinterBreak for FW 5.18.0.1.0.1? Could someone who did the JB on a Colorsoft please tell me which FW the Colorsoft had. I read in this thread @BionicGecko did the JB on a Colorsoft and a new device.lua is needed, which is for download in this thread, which FW has your Colorsoft when you did the JB, could you please tell me. Thank you in advance. Last edited by Sonnenfee; 01-11-2025 at 04:34 AM. |

What are the directions for undoing the jailbreak and removing ever add-on?
